 --------  ------------  --------------------------------
    3 2/3  cups          flour
    1 1/2  teaspoons     salt
      3/4  teaspoon      sugar
      1/4  cup           shortening (I use Crisco)
    1                    egg -- slightly beaten
    1      cup           milk
      1/4  cup           sesame seeds -- toasted
    2      tablespoons   poppy seeds
 
     Sift flour with salt and sugar into a large mixing bowl. Cut in
 shortening.  Combine egg and milk.  Stir into flour mixture, mixing well.
  Dough will be firm.  Let dough rest for 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 375
 degrees. Sprinkle sesame seed on 4 baking sheets.  Knead dough for 2-3
 minutes.  Divide dough into fourths; roll each piece to 1/16" thickness.
 Place dough on prepared pans; brush with water and sprinkle with poppy
 seed.  Bake for 20-25 minutes or until browned and crisp.  Break into
 pieces and serve with butter.  Makes 4 sheets.  Enjoy!     Me ke aloha, 
 Mary
